GeoGuide: Geometric guidance of diffusion models

[Submitted on 17 Jul 2024] View a PDF of the paper titled GeoGuide: Geometric guidance of diffusion models, by Mateusz Poleski and 2 other authors View PDF HTML (experimental) Abstract:Diffusion models are among the most effective methods for image generation. This is in particular because, unlike GANs, they can be easily conditioned during training to produce elements with desired class or properties. However, guiding a pre-trained diffusion model to generate elements from previously unlabeled data is significantly more challenging. One of the possible solutions was given by the ADM-G guiding approach. Although ADM-G successfully generates elements from the given class,…

Flutter vs. React Native

Flutter vs. React Native

Flutter vs. React Native: A Comprehensive 2024 Comparison When deciding on a framework for cross-platform mobile app development, it's essential to consider multiple factors. This detailed comparison between Flutter and React Native covers various aspects, including learning curve, ease of deployment, scalability, performance, popularity, community support, libraries, and more. By the end of this article, you'll have a clearer understanding of which framework might be best suited for your needs. 1. Learning Curve Flutter:Flutter uses Dart, a language designed by Google that's relatively easy to learn, especially for those with experience in object-oriented programming. Dart's syntax is straightforward, making it…

How AI improves operations on NOAA GOES-R weather and environmental satellites 

How AI improves operations on NOAA GOES-R weather and environmental satellites 

On June 25, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) launched the fourth and final satellite of the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites (GOES)-R program. This latest launch, known as GOES-U, continued and extended the program’s objective of serving as the Western hemisphere’s most sophisticated system for observing weather and monitoring the environment, according to the World Meteorological Organization. Beginning with the first GOES-R launch in November 2016, these satellites have provided NOAA with advanced imagery and atmospheric measurements, real-time mapping of lightning activity, space weather observations and other services based on an extensive range of data collected by an array…

I’m raising my kids in a town with fewer than 1,500 people. Cost of living is cheap, but we need to drive to find diversity.

I’m raising my kids in a town with fewer than 1,500 people. Cost of living is cheap, but we need to drive to find diversity.

Last winter my daughter became interested in gymnastics. She watched tutorials on YouTube and practiced moves herself while I hoped her interest might wane. Instead, it intensified, and all she wanted for her sixth birthday was gymnastics lessons. The only problem was that the nearest gymnastics studio was 43 minutes from our house.When I first had kids a decade ago, I was living in a Boston suburb, the type of place where you could probably find a gymnastics studio within biking distance of home. But before my second was born, my family moved to rural New Hampshire for my husband's…

SMLT-MUGC: Small, Medium, and Large Texts — Machine versus User-Generated Content Detection and Comparison

SMLT-MUGC: Small, Medium, and Large Texts — Machine versus User-Generated Content Detection and Comparison

arXiv:2407.12815v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have gained significant attention due to their ability to mimic human language. Identifying texts generated by LLMs is crucial for understanding their capabilities and mitigating potential consequences. This paper analyzes datasets of varying text lengths: small, medium, and large. We compare the performance of machine learning algorithms on four datasets: (1) small (tweets from Election, FIFA, and Game of Thrones), (2) medium (Wikipedia introductions and PubMed abstracts), and (3) large (OpenAI web text dataset). Our results indicate that LLMs with very large parameters (such as the XL-1542 variant of GPT2 with…

A Survey on Universal Approximation Theorems

A Survey on Universal Approximation Theorems

arXiv:2407.12895v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper discusses various theorems on the approximation capabilities of neural networks (NNs), which are known as universal approximation theorems (UATs). The paper gives a systematic overview of UATs starting from the preliminary results on function approximation, such as Taylor's theorem, Fourier's theorem, Weierstrass approximation theorem, Kolmogorov - Arnold representation theorem, etc. Theoretical and numerical aspects of UATs are covered from both arbitrary width and depth.

9 foods that can boost your brain health — and don’t cost more than $1 per serving

9 foods that can boost your brain health — and don’t cost more than $1 per serving

Brain doctors Ayesha and Dean Sherzai have spent their careers investigating how to have a healthy brain."We learned that yes, there are things you can do," Mr. Sherzai told Business Insider. "Lifestyle has the most profound effect on brain health, more than anybody could imagine."One big study the two doctors often reference, which examined the diets of older adults living in public housing and nursing homes around Chicago, showed that those who adhered to a more brain-friendly diet pattern had a 53% lower risk of developing dementia."These are unimaginable numbers," Sherzai said. "No protocols, no weird stuff, no vitamin concoction."It's…

ChatBCG: Can AI Read Your Slide Deck?

arXiv:2407.12875v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal models like GPT4o and Gemini Flash are exceptional at inference and summarization tasks, which approach human-level in performance. However, we find that these models underperform compared to humans when asked to do very specific 'reading and estimation' tasks, particularly in the context of visual charts in business decks. This paper evaluates the accuracy of GPT 4o and Gemini Flash-1.5 in answering straightforward questions about data on labeled charts (where data is clearly annotated on the graphs), and unlabeled charts (where data is not clearly annotated and has to be inferred from the X and…
